Have you tried running the script from the command line? I'd be
interested to know if the fb9 appears there. I'm not seeing it in any

QUERY_STRING, and HTTP_HOST environment variables to run the CGI program
from the command line.

Hmm.. I think that should be included. Dave, it looks like you removed
the RSS_MIME_TYPE reference in version 1.8 of View.rb in CVS (when you
added the Last-modified header). Mistake?
